Alcoa Slashes Earnings Forecast Amid Alumina Price Drop and Tariff Pressures.

Alcoa just slashed its 2025 earnings forecast after a brutal Q2—profits plunged XX% as alumina prices dropped XX% and tariffs hit hard, costing $115M.

Key numbers:
- EBITDA down XX% to $321M  
- EPS for 2025 cut XX% to $XXXX  
- Alumina margin outlook trimmed from XX% to XX%

The company now bets on a rebound by 2029 with alumina margins recovering to XX% and midcycle alumina prices hitting $337/ton. But rising competition from low-cost Chinese suppliers and steep U.S. tariffs are turning up the pressure.
